    There would be no Hamas if israël hadn’t invoked it. It was a response against the occupation and slaughtering israël had been doing since more than 70 years ago until now.

      Now THAT’S overly simplifying things to the point of a flat out lie.

      You act like every nation there (and beyond) hasn’t wanted to kill Jews since before modern Israel.

      Giving a different name to Hamas wouldn’t change anything.

      The Palestinian people voted for Hamas after Israel removed their settlements and ended the occupation of Gaza. Israel withdrawing from Palestinian territory was not considered to be an act of peace, they saw it as an act of weakness and a sign they should vote for fascist strongmen to fight even harder. Maybe you’re too young to have been around when that went down and your internet research didn’t explain the circumstances in which Hamas took power. Gaza turned to fascism, leaving no real option for peace.

      The emotional fervor that fascist propaganda provides is attractive to the young. But it’s the same story we’ve seen before. Fascists take power, then because they can’t stop having destructive conflicts their country ends up destroyed.

      Hate destroys everything. Doesn’t really matter what the justification for that hatred is, it destroys people and countries. Try not to let it destroy you, ok?
